After years of production and anticipation, a seemingly revolving door of talent coming and going, and the addition then subtraction of the greatest living director Jean-Luc Godard (in my opinion anyway), the colossal Paris, je t'aime is finally branching the Atlantic. The project showcases twenty-two of the top directors in the world (I count the Coen brothers as one person) as they each direct a segment that doubles as both a brief romantic encounter and a romantic ode to the city of Paris. Each segment is broken up into arrondissements, which is French for 'counties' I think, where each filmmaker will showcase their particular story in a different part of Paris. First Look Pictures has thankfully picked up the North American rights, ensuring cinephiles here will finally get to see this film, which seemed to exist solely on an Imdb page for about five years until its premiere at the Toronto Film Festival. First Look is looking to make an even bigger splash with this release, having already released Austrailian neo-western The Proposition and Sundance fave A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints.
